Tinto Brass.” the Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival (HRIFF) Returns to the New Beverly Cinema in Dec PRESS RELEASE LOS ANGELES - The 2012 Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival is proud to screen the newly restored “1960s and 1970s Films of Tinto Brass.” The Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival (HRIFF) returns to the New Beverly Cinema in Dec. 2012, to screen their most ambitious program to date, featuring the “1960s and 1970s Films of Tinto Brass” retrospective. HRIFF’s 2012 “1960s and 1970’s Films of Tinto Brass” retrospective includes world premieres of restored and extended versions of the rarest Tinto Brass films of the 1960s and 1970s, inc: La Vacanza, which stars Vanessa Redgrave and Franco Nero, and not screened in the U.S. for four decades. La Vacanza is a cinematic gem, which was named “Best Italian Film” at the Venice Film Festival in 1971, and is described by Tinto Brass as being his “second-favorite” of his own films. The screening at HRIFF 2012 will be the first time this film has had a theatrical screening in the USA since 1971. Tinto Brass was well known in the 1960s and 1970s for films distinguished by their extremely experimental editing and camera work, as well as for their political and satirical content. These qualities helped Tinto Brass get the first offer to direct A Clockwork Orange, a film whose eventual director used many production and style cues reminiscent of Tinto’s earlier work from that era. HRIFF 2012 presents La Vacanza in an extended, restored version with never- seen-before footage taken from the Tinto Brass archives. The film screenings will be accompanied by a new, short documentary about the making of the film, and a Q&A featuring director Tinto Brass, and film scholar, Alexander Tuschinski. HRIFF is held Dec 3-12th 2012 in Los Angeles, CA Dec 3-5 at the New Beverly Cinema 7165 W. Beverly Blvd, Hollywood, CA Dec 6-12 at Bellvarado Studios 2107 Bellevue Avenue, Los Angeles, CA For interviews: [email protected] / www.hollywoodreelindependentfilmfestival.com PRESS: www.hollywoodreelindependentfilmfestival.com/mediakit/pr_index.html TICKETS: http://hrifftickets.eventbrite.com/ TINTO BRASS HRIFF TRAILER: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPtCGOF6CSQ HRIFF at NEW BEVERLY – SPECIAL Tinto Brass SCREENINGS: Dropout with Vanessa Redgrave & Franco Nero screens Tue.

  • Gore Vidal's Caligula (1979): Denying the Author Daniel O'brien Gore
    Journal of American Studies of Turkey 35-36 (2012): 97-109 Gore Vidal’s Caligula (1979): Denying the Author Daniel O’Brien Gore Vidal’s involvement with and subsequent disownment of the film Caligula (1979) is well known. Produced in Italy and financed by Penthouse publisher Bob Guccione; it started as an ostensibly serious biopic of the infamous Roman emperor, scripted by Vidal, but ended up as a lurid blend of graphic violence and explicit sex. The focus of this article is not on Caligula itself, but an accompanying documentary, made at the time of the film’s production with Vidal’s participation. The prosaic title A Documentary on the Making of Gore Vidal’s Caligula (1981) is notable for apparently granting Vidal authorial ownership of the film. However, the content of the documentary, supervised by Guccione, subverts and questions this authorship, ultimately denying both Vidal’s entitlement to this position and the validity of the concept itself. My methodology includes debates on authorship in relation to the cinema, which have usually centered on the director and ideas of personal expression. As noted below, Vidal scorned the notion of directors as cinematic authors, or auteurs, regarding them as mere technicians who neither required nor displayed creative ability. However, A Documentary on the Making of Gore Vidal’s Caligula highlights opposing ideas of film authorship that befit further analysis. As Peter Wollen states, the concept of the auteur is linked to the French film journal Cahiers du Cinéma, which promoted the politique des auteurs during the 1950s, albeit in haphazard fashion (74, 77).

    The Tinto Brass Collection Reviewed by: Axel Howerton Eyecravedvd.com C.A.V. Distribution/Cult Epics Starring: Stefania Sandrelli Claudia Koll Serena Grandi Directed by: Tinto Brass Running Time: 294 minutes Crave Factor Movie: 8 Menu: 4 Extras: 6 Video: 9 Audio: 7 Overall Crave Factor SPECIAL EDITIONS – “Masterpieces of Erotic Cinema” includes uncut versions of THE KEY, MIRANDA and ALL LADIES DO IT. Interviews with Tinto Brass, Photo Galleries, Trailers and Filmographies Movie Review Erotic cinema is not usually my bag, but when you’re talking about the creator of the legendary CALIGULA, I have to take a peek. Tinto Brass is well known for CALIGULA, but most of his other works were ignored here in North America. In Europe, he was one of the giants of the 70’s soft-core erotica scene, along with the more controversial Jess Franco, and some swarthy dudes I’ve never heard of. It is something of a tragedy that Brass will forever be branded a ‘soft-core porn’ director, because he manifests a magnificent artistry in his films that came to be a cliché of the soft-core world. The gauzy soft-lit interiors and hazy daylight scenes contrasted with cool blue night shots were stolen and bastardized by a whole generation of erotica stylists, but Brass was the original master. This is a director who managed to turn film love scenes into brilliant masterpieces of visual imagery, they were less porn than painting. He lit his female stars like angelic messiahs, and filmed his vistas with such love and acceptance that the streets and fields of Italy seem just beyond your fingertips.

Over 70 films are featured, including the “1960s and 1970s Films of Tinto Brass” retrospective. The HRIFF’ 2012 “1960s and 1970s Films of Tinto Brass” retrospective includes world premieres of restored and extended versions of the rarest Tinto Brass films of the 1960s and 1970s, including Dropout, which stars the super- team of Vanessa Redgrave and Franco Nero, who were such fans of Tinto Brass that they also produced and financed the film themselves. Dropout has not been screened since 1975, nor has it been released on home video, making it one of the rarest movies made in the 1970s. This will change in December when Dropout will, screen in the U.S. for the first time in over 40 years (and feature new and never before footage from the Tinto Brass archives) at the 2012 Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival.

In a commentary Tinto Brass recorded for the DVD release of his film L'Urlo (aka The Howl), the director described it as "a film not about 1968, but of 1968." While Brass was referring to the fact that this movie was shot during that year of international tumult, L'Urlo is very much a product of its time, which in this case doesn't work to its favor. Brass's notions of political and social satire may seem reasonably sincere in this movie, but they're also bludgeoningly obvious, and pretty much any time he can find a way to throw nudity or sex into his anti-authoritarian slapstick he does, which makes the movie look more like a faux-psychedelic soft core porn effort than a pointed commentary on contemporary mores.
